Send us your Di memories

This month marks the 10th anniversary of the death of Diana, Princess of Wales and we want you to share your memories of her with us.

The Express & Star is collecting memories of the People's Princess from our readers.

During her lifetime Princess Diana made many visits to the Black Country, Staffordshire and across the wider West Midlands region.

And as the August 31 anniversary of her death approaches, we would like to hear from any readers who remember seeing her or meeting her.

Perhaps you were there when Wolverhampton rolled out the red carpet to welcome her as she officially opened the city's new police headquarters in

Bilston Street in 1992 or maybe you got to meet her when she visited Walsall Manor Hospital.

We would also like memories of staff who met her when she toured the Royal Brierley Crystal Works in Brierley Hill in 1985 as well as the thoughts of workers from Helix in Lye who met her during a visit to commemorate the centenary of the company.

There may also be people who remember seeing and chatting to Princess Diana as she made impromptu walkabouts while visiting the region.

Perhaps your were lucky enough to speak to Diana and have your photo taken with her.

If you'd like to share your memories, contact Women's Editor Maria Cusine at m.cusine@expressandstar.co.uk or write to Maria at Express & Star, 51-53 Queen Street, Wolverhampton, WV1 1ES.
